What is a turntable animation?
A turntable is a looping clip where the camera orbits an object through 360 degrees so the viewer sees every side. It is the standard way to show a product in 3D.

How to do it
- Open the MeshShot web app and import the model.
- Apply the turntable camera preset.
- Export a GIF or video that loops.
Technically the object stays still and the camera moves. Keeping speed constant and ending exactly where it began makes the loop seamless.
Good to know: Slow, steady rotation reads as premium; fast spins look cheap.
